Oracy Day 2026

Join us for a day dedicated to the power of providing a talk-rich education for all.

At Abbey Multi Academy Trust, we are proud to be at the forefront of excellence around providing a high-quality oracy education. We see this as a core entitlement for all young people. We have placed oracy at the centre of all we do since 2018 and are recognised as a leading beacon of excellence, with three nationally recognised Oracy Centres of Excellence spanning primary through to Sixth Form provision. Our Oracy Day brings together teachers and leaders from across the UK who share this commitment and who want to explore how oracy can be intentionally planned, taught and embedded to improve outcomes for all learners.
